How big a deal does a lighter flywheel make? Don't you want some flywheel mass to keep the motor spinning when shifting/momentarily off boost? What about a waste gate? I have a manual boost controller and a proper boost gauge going in, so if I see the boost bleeding at high RPMs can't I just turn it up a bit to compensate? I only plan on running 16lbs of boost sustained, although a transient spike up to 18-19lbs wouldn't bother me as long as temps remain good.

Thoughts?
